The Challenge

My aunt sent me a challenge image she found in some website. The challenge is to find a panda in this image:

My panda

My brain in overdrive quickly drew it’s pistols, squinted, and found the panda it was looking for:

I rushed and posted back to my aunt, proud of myself. “Hey!, I found the panda!”

I even posted the newly found, interesting challenge to other friends of mine in another chat group, and also shared with all of them something similar to what they could see after squinting (highlight over Gaussian blur):

Article’s panda

Victorious, I open the article to confirm my findings.

Just to find out, to my utter surprise, that the article intended us to find this other panda instead:

Time stopped for a multitude of uncountable instants.

I was impressed.

There was another panda the author had missed. The very author.

A little bit abstract my panda, for sure. But a panda at last. My panda, my golden nugget.

Not only that, but I like my abstract panda much, much better.

After all, it is my panda.
